A small local project, from the first artwork to the finished pieces. We designed this St. Albans logo from scratch, then turned it into a batch of custom keychains for people here in town.

A logo with a local connection

The design pairs bold white lettering with orange, yellow, and teal shapes. The curved letters and bright background give the name its own character, whether you see it as artwork or hold it in your hand.

The logo design was part of the project. Second Flight Studios created the artwork and carried it through to the physical pieces shown here.

From artwork to something you can hold

Turning the design into a keychain meant giving a flat image depth. We modeled the lettering and colored shapes as a layered object, then 3D printed the pieces and assembled them with metal key rings and chains.

The raised white lettering sits above the color, so the design has a shape and texture of its own. The photos show the finished keychains alongside a larger printed version of the same design.

The finished pieces

This is the part we enjoy: seeing an idea become something someone can actually use. The same artwork carries across the small keychains and the larger piece, with the lettering, color, and layered construction tying them together.

Logo design, modeling, printing, and assembly all belonged to one project. That connection is a useful part of what we offer at Second Flight Studios.

Have something in mind?

A project like this can begin with an existing logo or a design we create together. If your business, school, club, or event needs a custom branded piece, tell us what you have in mind. Small runs are welcome, and we can work through the design and production options with you.
